Control Arm Bushings - 1 Time Use Nuts, New Hardware Needed?

So I'm going through my front suspension, replacing original bushings with eBay Prothane ones. Currently the front and rear, front lower control arm bushings.

I noticed a small asterisk in my Chilton next to the torque specs for a few of the nuts used when bolting things back together, saying that these need to be replaced.

So anyone else that has done this work, do I need to heed the advice of my Chilton, or can I work with the hardware that I have and just bolt her back up?

Thanks,

John

I've reused all the nuts without problems.
